| Can I cheat and not get caught? I did mine the old fashion way, used a rat tail file and was able to accomplish in short order with good control | |
| Mola Mola Makua and Kartugas or Preamp and Merrill Veritas? Not to complicate things for you but Nuprime's. Evolution One Mono amps should also be on your list. New 8K and used about 5K, to me they handily beat out many Class D including Veritas. I also have found that Class D pairs well with a tubed pream... | |
| Bryston or Aragon I used the Aragon with Polk 2.3 SDA's a long time back and they worked well together. For the current price I think excellent. No experience with the Bryson. I'd check that the new company will service Aragon and be sure you can return if not full... | |
| Recommend speakers for a large living room I have 38 X22 room with multiple seating areas and Von Schweikert VR55 Aktives work beautifully as they are adjustable in the self amplified base going down to 21 HZ at -2db, about .5% distortion across audio spectrum and rear facing ambience twee... | |
| High value, giant killer speakers? At the less expensive (not inexpensive) Endeavor E3 or E5, more expensive is Von Schweikert VR55 Aktives which are better than many at twice the price. Key with speakers and much other equipment is to agree with the designer's ear that you like w... | |
| What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard? No mention of Jeff Rowland and Dartzeel here so far. I have been thinking about Jeff Rowland 625S2 and Datrzeel 208 or 8550. Any body have experience with these brands compared to Luxman 509 or other brands that are being listed as favorites? | |
| Whats the best sounding tube cd player up until now? Vintage or newer. Ayon CD35 and Ayon CD35HF | |
| Ultimate power condotioner I too live in the country with my own transformer, also my listening room is in a new addition part of the house with a new 200 amp service box, apart from the old service that feeds the rest of the house where the appliances reside. Congratulatio... | |
| False Advertising I bought a discountiued Cambridge Audio piece on Audiogon and the remote malfunctioned. I called the company and they searched around and found me a remote that worked and sent it to me free, so it is worth calling the company being nice and seein... | |
| Shipping by UPS Expensive and fragile things like speakers and anything with tubes, I ship Fed Ex air or better yet Pilot Freight Air and meet the package at the closest airport distribution center (in my case about an hour 20 minutes away. Worth it to have neve... | |
| I want to be moved and have the music touch my soul! Your Oppo is likely to be the weak link and causing the lack of involvement. Try something like an Ayon CD35 or used Ayon 5s. They have a tubes power supply and tubed preamp within as well as a nice Dac and comprise a very engaging front end. | |
| Any Audiophile Fuses UL approved? Thanks for the helpful information. I will check these out | |
| Where to test tubes? Rodman, Thanks I have contacted them. | |
| Unforgiving DAC or add Tube Preamp?? A used Ayon CD5s would include transport, dac and tubed preamp in one box and may fit the bill | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? +1 Nuforce/Nuprime, particularly with Bob Smith's TDDS factory authorized mods. I had their monobloc Reference 9V3Se, then Reference 20 and Now Evolution One. Have heard many other class D and these are best I have heard. Disclosure, my Reference ... |
